add subgenre for business and finance documentaries

I'm interested in documentaries about business, businessmen and financiers. (Lumping these topics into history-documentary is too broad.) Please add a subgenre for business-finance-documentary.

Let's get "Audio Drama" added as a category

Radio Drama is a popular entertainment format in the UK - radio plays are 45/60 minutes long, are broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and 4, and often feature very high profile names.. I have also performed in a number of radio plays for the BBC, but found there is no option to select Audio Drama as a category

Proper Production Stage Options

Hi IMDb,I truly believe you should have more accurate options for a project that is not shooting yet. I have been wanted to express this for probably over a decade. There can be steps or after "script" when a project is ready for shooting, but before a project is in "pre-production". Pre-production

Doom Scroll Rating

I suggest adding a rating that lets you know if it's a show or movie you can multitask during or if you really need to pay attention. I always tell my friends, "This is a show you can't or can doom-scroll during" or "This is a show you'll actually need to pay attention to." So you need a Doom Scroll

Character Limit on Company Names

Just wondering if there's a reason for allowing only so many characters, as often I'll be adding departments or institutions with titles longer than allowed. Sometimes they'll fit perfectly but then the Country ISO code won't fit on. So often I'm truncating them and writing in to have them staff alt

Spoilers for other films

I honestly don't know if this is a Problem or an Idea, but here goes.So, I'm reading the trivia for "I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)," after I'd rewatched it, and come across someone who thought it was good spoiler trivia to reveal the killer or killers in ALL the films, BY NAME.

Nonsense number of images for a movie

Is there a limit to the pics that can be added to a movie? I think that there should be one. Its easy to find movies like "Mad Max: Fury Road" with numbers as huge as 3300 images... It is a nonsense. At 24 fps that would be more than 2 hours... probably longer than the film itself, Also, there are t

Allow other works to be re-ordered

Hi. "Other Works" section is a pretty good place to add commercials, radio, theater, books, music videos (edit: does not belong to ”Other Works”), audio recordings (edit: podcasts does not belong to ”Other Works”), etc - BUT it still doesn't support year order. Based on the older thread about two ye

Pet peeve - plot outline, plot summary, and "just" synopsis in update form

I know it's a very minor issue, but in the updating form, it says Plot Outlines, Plot Summaries and Synopsis. Can the word "plot" be added to Synopsis as well please? It's more consistent that way. Also, it's more clear I feel. They way it is listed now, it kinda suggests the Synopsis is not part of

New attribute for cast members should be added

I have a new idea that should have already been added to IMDb attributes for cast members. The idea that I am talking about is that a new attribute called understudies should be added onto IMDb. This is due to the fact that multiple theatre performances on IMDb like spirited away live on stage, life
